Today in the Lords: is Baroness Sharples the Black Widow?

In today's brief discussion on courtesy titles and equality in the Lords, I was intrigued by the intervention of Conservative backbencher, Baroness Sharples, who noted;
My Lords, is my noble friend aware that I have actually killed off three husbands so perhaps the question does not arise for me? Are there not much more important matters that the Government should be concerned with?

She may well be right, although it does lead one to wonder exactly what happened to her husbands. That bag looks pretty vicious...
